10th Swiss HEP Preceptorship Meeting

December 6th-7th, 2024, Lucerne, Switzerland

About

"Current and future challenges in the management of liver diseases"

The annual HEP Preceptorship is an interactive course organised by Prof. Dr. med. Andrea De Gottardi for about 40 physicians. This exquisite event takes place every year since 2013 and has hosted many internationally renown speakers. The aim of the HEP Preceptorship is to provide an interactive course for young and interested hepatologists and gastroenterologists with many topics around chronic liver diseases.

After a break in 2021 because of COVID-19 we reinvented the format and will provide you with a 1.5 day course. We are currently putting together a new and interesting program for you with lectures as well as workshops.
We look forward to welcome you to an exciting and interesting HEP Preceptorship 2024 in Lucerne. Please feel free to subscribe in the registration area of this website soon.
